@@nodreb123 And that is exactly correct as i am one of them & i would take all Phils work with Brand X & Genisis as his best playing the rest was music for money. Sad he can't play this way with his back issues as he was one hell of drummer. His talent as an opinion was lost on his commercial efforts even if it did make him famous. That's why he was chastised so much just because it was a talent lost for fame & money. Either way the man is a class act we wanted to hear more of that progressive style.

I never appreciated Phil Collins till I went to see "Song Remains the Same" at an Alamo Drafthouse and instead they showed a Genesis concert film. It was from the prog era of Genesis and Phil had only recently replaced Peter Gabriel. I had no love for Genesis and would've walked out but from the very first minute I was enthralled. His drumming was insane and the songs were great and that familiar Phil Collins' voice. And also Bill Bruford! I'm glad I stuck it out. Even my goth girlfriend liked it and she hated everything!

Just the range that Collins delivers on Genesis' "Mama" - from desperate pleas over evil threats to unleashed madness - there's a lot in there. And all in just one song. To be honest, I can only think of few singers who are so versatile. Besides, lots of pop stars would have committed murders for songs like "In the Air Tonight", "I Missed Again", "If Leaving Me Is Easy", "Against All Odds", "I Don't Care Anymore", "Easy Lover", "Don't Lose My Number", "Take Me Home", "Another Day in Paradise" or "I Wish It Would Rain Down".

Compare this version with the Live at Perkins Palace 1982 version (also on YT). Larger band (more percussion lol), higher production values, stronger vocals from Collins, tighter arrangement. But the same drummer's slouch, the posture that, if not noted and corrected soon enough, can kill a drummer's career. Collins is a brilliant drummer. I don't know if his current health issues have anything to do with his back; I truly hope not. But any drummers reading this: please, please be aware of your posture and take care of your back.

Once you put aside the name Phil Collins comes with its own baggage and listen to his drumming you soon realise there were times he was great. His Brand X stuff stands out for his ride patterns and for me his best stuff with Genesis was Selling England by the Pound. Some great drumming on there but probably overshadowed a little by the big beasts of prog Carl Palmer, ridiculous snare work and Bill Bruford a rock drummer who manages to blend seamlessly into jazz.
